Designed for the mom-to-be with a low-to-moderate fitness level, Gabby's program emphasizes strengthening the arms, glutes (butt) and legs as well as the back. These moves are tailored to the second trimester. Do this workout every other day using a set of 2- to 5-pound dumbbells. Start with 1 set of 10 reps, progressing to 3 sets of 15 reps.
